What clients ask before booking
Will I lose control under hypnosis?+
Here in Borrowash, No. Hypnosis is a focused awake state — you can speak, move and open your eyes at any point.
Is it evidence-based?+
Clinical hypnotherapy has good evidence in anxiety, IBS, pain and habit change — it is used inside NHS and academic settings.
What does hypnosis actually feel like?+
Most people describe it as pleasantly relaxed, aware and absorbed — similar to being lost in a book or a piece of music.
How is this different from meditation?+
Meditation is generalised attention practice; clinical hypnosis is targeted therapeutic work with a defined outcome.
Is it safe if I have a mental-health diagnosis?+
In most cases yes, but this is discussed openly in the intro call to make sure the approach fits your situation.
The approach in practice
- Step 1
Prepare for real life
The final phase rehearses the pattern under normal life stress, so results don't collapse the moment life gets busy.
- Step 2
Start with regulation
Nothing is processed while your nervous system is dysregulated. Sessions begin with body-level tools that work the same day.
- Step 3
Review and adjust
Every few sessions we step back and check the direction — nothing is done to you without your say-so.
- Step 4
Address the driver
Using clinical hypnotherapy and, where useful, NLP-informed reframing, we work at the level the pattern actually runs on.
